Baked sausages and butterbeans recipe

This sausage and butterbeans recipe is a lifesaver if you are pressed for time but still want to produce something comforting, warming and tasty. There’s no browning, no stirring and hardly any prep at all.

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180°C or 160 fan-forced. Place the onions, sausages and capsicums in a non-stick roasting tray and then put it in the oven for 20 minutes.

Remove the sausages from the pan and toss through butterbeans, garlic, thyme and tomatoes plus 3/4 cup of hot water (more if the mixture looks at all dry). Return sausages to the top of the mixture, cover with foil and pop the tray back into the oven for another 20 minutes.

Remove foil and cook for a final 10 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Notes:

The result is a homely dish that tastes amazing and needs only a simple salad, a chunk of good parmesan cheese and some nice bread for everyone to hack away at.
